Just FYI, Celexa is an SSRI antidepressant, similar to Prozac (though not identical). It's generally prescribed more for depression and anxiety than for ADHD, although using it in relation to ADHD is not unheard of, generally in cases where stimulants are not appropriate.
While it's not necessarily representative, my own experience with Celexa was rather horrific.

Thank you, about the time I started taking Lexapro and then lost my job and they went on Celexa, sister to Lexapro.............Many of the reasons I got off of it.............
Thunor, Thanks for the info my friend,i am familar with sum anti-depresents but wasnt sure about Celexa. I do know that hair loss isnt an effect from Vyvanse in reguards of my son with his experience with the med. The info will be helpfull though, thanks again Thunor.
Himmy, You should probly look into getting checked out, even though im not a expert,just a certified nurse, i really do thing you should talk to your Dr. about the hair loss, there is something going on in your system that doesnt add up. I hope i help with your probllem hun....take care and keep up updated.
Thank you, I eat well, exercise, and try to drink plenty of water, However I am going to bring this up at my next doctors appointment..........does not seem so bad now!
But am anemic, so always be aware..............thank you.
Himmy, Anytime and let me correct myself lol, im a Certified Nurse Assistant not a Nurse,sorry about the miss spelling. Do you take anyting for the Anemia?
Himmy, I also did see your other post about your other problem and it seems you have alot to deal with which im sure is frustrating. As far as the Iron pill and the hair loss thing goes, i dont think the extra iron is doing anything to effect the hair loss but is helping to replace what your losing due too your bleeding. Your primary Dr. should do extra test to see what the problem is as far as the hair loss goes and as far as the hystorectomy goes,if you dont do it,it may hurt you more than you know if you dont go thru with it. Im not a Dr. so everything is just what i know about from my Nursing Assistant classes.
